@Towelie Clegane Amazing work solving this tough puzzle! :cozycrashfish:

haha ! i got it :D very very clever
Towelie Clegane 18 Nov, 2024 @ 5:26pm 
oh nvm. i meant cubes as in building blocks.. panels.. the walls, they are basically large blocks of black metal ya know ? you can "count" your height buy counting the lines in the walls..
nvm anyway, i thought about it more and obviously my question is irrelevant.
crazy puzzle you got there. i JUST realised the angle panel beams the eye hahaha you sneaky you.. thats good

@Towelie Clegane I'm not sure I understand your question; jumping off of cubes, and certainly two cubes, is not necessary to solve this puzzle!
Towelie Clegane 14 Nov, 2024 @ 5:53am 
jeez ! thanks for that laser off command !

@mentallentil Thank you so much! Excellent work solving this very tough puzzle. I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed :D

That ending is so cool wow, this honestly might be one of the best funnel + laser puzzles I've solved. Favourited for sure :love_seagull:

@Riishuu Thank you very much for the kind words! Amazing work solving this tough puzzle. This map also still holds a special place in my heart too :cozycrashfish:

One of the most satisfying and difficult puzzles I've played. I remember starting it over a year ago but at the time felt it was too difficult and always wanted to come back to it later with more experience. It's currently in my top 5 favorites now with such unique usage of test elements, amount of steps required, and amount of logical dead ends that really make you plan ahead.

A good map. You are a master of logical level design:steamthumbsup:

Amazing logic! One of the best map i've ever played. Thumbs up!

@SpiderLucas15 Amazing work! This is a very challenging puzzle, it's very cool to hear that you stuck with it over multiple days! I'm very happy to hear that you liked it :D
SpL15 11 Jul, 2023 @ 7:47pm 
This one took me a couple of days, at some point I considered giving up, but I'm glad I finally solved it by myself. Another great map!
Mikeastro  [author] 17 Jun, 2022 @ 12:48am 
@camerson1313 Thanks a lot for playing a bunch of my maps :D It means a lot to hear this one in particar could pose a decent challenge to such an experienced creator/solver of insanely hard puzzles. I'm looking forward to watching your video when I have the time :]
camerson1313 17 Jun, 2022 @ 12:10am 
Okay so, THIS map proved to be rather decent challenge. Of the 5 I randomly picked, this one took longer than all 4 others combined. For sure one of the most elaborate utilization of the funnelaser element I've seen. Favorited, and playthrough.
Mikeastro  [author] 20 Apr, 2022 @ 11:13pm 
@PaleoBlue Fantastic work solving this one! This is a complex puzzle indeed. And yeah, the laser collision is quite annoying here. Luckily these days it is easy to disable so the player does not have to resort to the console themselves :]
mileskobold 20 Apr, 2022 @ 4:57pm 
Now this is a difficult map. Figuring out how to keep the ability to have portals in the room with the funnel was probably the most difficult part. I'm surprised I even solved this in the first place. Only complaint is that you have to use a console command for the optimal experience (multiple times if you use quicksaves, but you can't really stop that from resetting the command).

@Mr Fab Thank you very much! It was very interesting to watch you figure out a key move :]
Mr Fab 6 Dec, 2021 @ 12:01pm 
Beautiful puzzle ! With a great music and impressive moves ! I love it :steamthumbsup:

@SunnyOst Thank you so much :D Excellent work solving this one! This is still one of my favourite puzzles of myself as well :cozycrashfish:

OMG I can't believe I have solved this. This was freaking amazing! I love it so much! Great level! :steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup::steamthumbsup:

"Brilliant logic puzzle, pure genius" and still is!

@Spacekitty Thank you so much :] I'm honoured to be featured in your collection!

For some reason I have never left a comment on this map. This puzzle is one of my all-time favorite maps. I remember playing this for the first time when I was less experienced. I eventually gave up and watched the solution, however, I eventually came back to try to resolve it, which I managed to do. Great and unique ideas with absolutely outstanding logic. Goddamn masterpiece. Thank you very much :]
Mikeastro  [author] 2 Nov, 2019 @ 6:50am 
@Spider_Dawg This puzzle has a number of very subtle moves indeed. You figured out most of them by yourself - the one you got stuck on has proven to be the hardest to spot for most players - so you can definitely still be content with your achievements. I'm glad you liked it in the end :]
Spider_Dawg 2 Nov, 2019 @ 6:31am 
You win again. Just getting the cubes up top felt like a huge victory. Hell, just getting the laser at the correct height felt like a win. I could see that I needed to switch the cubes at the top of the funnel but eventually had to cheat with a video to see how. I'd never thought of that funnel reversal trick. I wish I had the patience to figure that out for myself, but at least that was the only help I needed. On an unrelated note, I've finally gotten around to adding multilib support to my Slackware64 machine, and this was my first time playing Portal2 with Linux. The poorer quality graphics and performance weren't the reason I couldn't get this on my own, but it did add to the frustration! Well done, thumbs up.

@Teo Thanks a lot for the video! That must be one of the coolest ways I've ever seen any of my maps being broken xD I'll think about fixing it. I'm glad you enjoyed it in the end :D
Teo 5 Oct, 2019 @ 8:42pm 
Super great logic puzzle, definitely one of the toughest on your best of list! Here's my blind run , sorry for breaking it at first :P
Mikeastro  [author] 27 Jul, 2019 @ 3:29am 
@kimist108 Aren't those moments the reason we all play this game? :) Excellent work solving this one
kimist108 26 Jul, 2019 @ 6:44pm 
I thought that I was going to fall out of my chair when the ah-ha hit for getting the set up for getting the last two portals placed and getting the second cube up. I used pen and paper to try different procedures.
Master.AKA 15 May, 2019 @ 11:03am 
Not Yet! I Stopped in some point so maybe when I will come back later it has been solved by then! ( you know what I mean as a mathematician! :lunar2019coolpig: )
Mikeastro  [author] 15 May, 2019 @ 10:38am 
@amir.khodayan1377 Actually, I composed it myself :D Have you solved the puzzle yet? It's quite tricky

Just replayed this map. I still love it.
quatrus 16 Dec, 2018 @ 7:19am 
Absolutely loved the map and challenge. never know where my ability edge is if I don't fall off once in a while.
Mikeastro  [author] 14 Dec, 2018 @ 9:10am 
@quatrus It is a very hard map. I hope you liked it regardless
quatrus 14 Dec, 2018 @ 8:48am 
Very hard for me. Had to use help from playthroughs to see what needed to be done to exit. I think I never would have seen it no matter how long I played. Thanks for creating.

@BehindPortal Excellent work! Thanks a lot for the video - your solution was perfect :)

@sembiox Well done solving it! It's not at all an easy map
sembiox 20 Oct, 2018 @ 12:54pm 
I had all the parts worked out but it took me an age to string them together in the right order.
Very challenging puzzle, thank-you very much.

The last room after the door had me stumped! :steamhappy:
Mikeastro  [author] 20 Oct, 2018 @ 6:53am 
@asears16 Thank you very much for the kind words :D I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed so many of my maps! Excellent work solving it - it was really interesting to watch it all fall into place
